tum with a large sack on his
shoulder.

pany and | am directed to pay you
some money"
All right, sir, if you want to
cave us down the bank just lock
the door quietly
The man closed the door as di-
rected, and then solemnly laid down
43 cents on the table, for which he
demanded a receipt.
1t appeared that on freight con-
signment from below there had
been an over charge of 40 cents,
which the onscious-stricken com
pany had decided to refund. The
representative of the heartful cor
poration was Immediately taken out
and treated, leaving a surplus of 20
cents in the editorial fund.
The editor fell as If struck by
lightning.

a LAND BUOI1NG SCHEME.
A Little Racket Fixed mp for
Reno.

RenOs
A special dispatch to the Enter
prise of Sunday from Reno pre-
shadows that the State Agricultural
Society is about to purchase so
acres of land near Reno for $4,000
for the Agricultural Society. This
land was purchased a few days ago
from the English Mill Company for
about SO per acre, and before the
ink was dry on the contract it was
proposed to sell it to the Agricul-
tural Society for 5000 an acre.
This looks very much like lit
tie job to boom Reno real estate at
the expense of the State. There
are parties in this city willing to
donate so acres of land just as
goodin all respects for Fair ground
as anything in or around Reno.
The Agricultural Society can
come up here and get 80 acres of
land close to the city as free gift
if it wants it, The $4,000 saved
by this operation would go a long
way toward securing a good State
Fair next Fall.

1t is very uncharitably recalled
by a Washington paper that Patti
gave farewell concert at the
capital on March 81, 1860. The af-
fair took place in Willards Hall,
and the diva was assisted by Stra-
kosch. Brignoi, Susani and Amo-
dio. Seats cost $2-a vuIgarly old
fashioned price. Among those who
invited Patti to go to Washington
at that time was Vice President
Breckenridge. OF the Senators who
were present at the performance

THE SHOOTING.
The Carson Team Win Oae
Match, and Lose Another.

The result of Sundays shooting
was not disappointment to the
Carson team, because they had not
counted on victory against team
picked from 400 of the leading crack
shots of the Coast.
They simply determined to make
a game fight and come as uear as
they could to their formidable an
tagonist>.
In the morning the dispatches
from below indicated pleasant
weather, but up here in Carson the
outlook was not so favorable.
When the ball opened, however,
the men were all in high spirits,
and felt AS fit as a fiddle and
good work was counted on.
In the afternoon the sky clouded
up, and presently pouring rain be-
gan, accompanied by high winds
a combination highly unfavorable
to accurate work. The last eight
men had the rain and wind to face,
and close work was impossible; yet
in spite of those disadvantages not
a single miss was recorded.
The score showed the effect of |
the weather at once and the per
centage fell While the last eight |
men shot the face of the target was
tapping in the wind like the main
sail of ship and was collapsing
and bullying in turns:

How Nevada is BEING Left Be

How Nevada is BEING Left BE
mind i'm the Great Race.
Hugh Mohan in a letter to the
Enterprise from Reno says:
In the conversation with Mr.
Fitzgerald, of the Depot Hotel, ]
learned this morning that there
are two sections of passenger
coaches going East from Califor-
MIA every morning, and two every
evening bound westward. 1t is re-
marked In Virginia frequently:
why are the mails delaye6?'
The answer is given in this item.
The heavy traffic on the Central
Pacific Railroad is the cause. But
let me add-the average number of
people going East is about 250,
and all 6rst-class-most of them in
sleepIng-coaches. This great out
pouring from California is due to
the fact that large number of
them have been spending the Win
ter In Los Angeles and all over
Southern California. Many of
them have invested In real estate,
vineyards, mining, etc., and are on
their way home for the Summer.
They express surprise, when in
conversation with them, / happen
to speak of the great advantages of
Nevada, and the many opportuni-
ties they pass by for profitable in
vestment. That surprise is couched
in an expression that fell from the |
lips of a distinguished citizen of |
Worcester, Massachusetts,, this
morning, when he abruptly said to
me: why don't you advertise
your State and the inducement for
strangers she possesses, and then
many who rush pell-mell
to California might be induced to
examine into your resources? For
Instance. he saId
Why, my dear Mr.-(an old ac-
quaintance), there is not a hotel,
public place, Summer resort, water
ing place. large or small manufac-
turing place in Massachusetts that
you are not liable to have thrust
under your very nose some kind of
!
a pamphlet or other speaking of
the glorious climate, salubrious soil
and wonderful produetiveness of
California, but" he continued with
drawl, who ever heard of Nevada" I
How much truth there Is In this
our Immigration Bureau may de-
termine to suit themselves, but as
to our correspondents idea Of it he
regretfully al mits. from actual OBJ
while travelling In the
East, for Nevada sake that it is
also too true. The class of passen-
gers going Westward average nearly
as many per day, or say 200. The
bulk of them are on emigrant
trains, and are going there to stay.
From these figures it would seem,
taking the number entering Cali
'orn;a from other sources, that
heir population must have in
creased nearly 100000 in the past
year. Why don't Nevada stir up
ler sleepy propensities and take
advantage Of the remark made by
he gentleman from Worcester.

The Dickinson press., 1887-11-05

An eA was telling his experiences q
few days ago. "Do you want to know he
asked, ''why it is that so many soldiers desert
from the army. Nearly one-third of the
army deserts every year, and there are 1900
courts martial every twelve months, andthis.
remember, in al army which doesn't consist
of many more than 10000 men when the
ranks ure pretty full. Well, the reason so
many desert is that they are treated more
like dogs than en-no not like dogs, for l
would rather be all officers dog than u musket
carrier-and never receive my consideration
whatever. That's why n better class Of men
doesn't Join the army. l don't kick on tho
pay the common soldier gets-S13 n month
and clothes and grub is more than many a
man with II family to support sets-but the
things the private puts up with are too hard
to bear, and it's n wonder that fifty officers
amt shot every year by their men.
"Of course the officers will deny that there
is any brutality in the army, but its there all
the same, and the men would rather Il good
deal he sent to the military prison at Fort
Leayenworth than serve in the ranks-that is
q good many of them. Why, q private
t%ursen't speak to his superior officer, q young
cad Just out of West Point, without permission.
There's too. much of the English snobbery i'll
our army. Outside the English our army is
the most exclusive uristocracy in the world
It's mostly made up of officers now, anyhow,
there being an officer for every eight men OF

Many rules are given by which the
number of bushels of corn in a crib may
he asccrtaincd. But these arc more or
less Enthusiastically from the fact that
they assume that two bushels of corn on
the ear are equal to one of shellcd corn;
whereas, in point of fact some corn will
| not make it, while some will morcthan do
| so. These rules, however. often serve Il
convenient purpose, atfordinS Il fairly
reasonable estimate, IL much closer one
tLan may be had from mere measurement
Of the eye. Following are IL few such
rules, any one of which may be employed
as an approximate estimate; the first is
most generally used:
/. Measure the length, breadth and
height of the crib. inside the rail; multi
ply these together and divide by two,
The result is the number of bushels of
shclled corn.
z. Level the corn so it is of equal depth
throughout. Multiply the length, breadth
and depth together, and this product by
four, and cut off one of the figures to tho
right of the product. The remaining fig
urcs will represent the number of bushels
Of shellcd corn.
$. Multiply length by height and thc1
by width, add two ciphcrs TO the result.
and divide by l24. This gives the mum
her of bushels of ears. Another rule i:
to proceed rs above to obtain the cubic
feet, and then assume that and one
fifth cubic feet make one bushel of ears o
corn.
a. Multiply length by breadth, and tn
product by the height, all in inches
divide this by 92,74S, and the quoticnt will
be the number of bushels of cars. From
two-thir!s to one half Of this will he til
number of bushels Of shelled corn, dc
pending ON the kind and quality.
